Grow Birth Nurture

The weight of motherhood


Listen Later

In episode 3 we talk with Jade Huggins who tells her raw and honest story about the birth of her 3 babies Goldie, Ziggy and Sonny who was born still at 32 weeks. This one is devastating and emotional yet has a sense of hope and peace to it that Jade articulates so beautifully.

We discuss her struggles with fertility, the births of all her babies, her realisation of the weight of motherhood, her story of Sonny and the unimaginable pain her family went through when they learnt of his condition and passing at 32 weeks. We also discuss navigating parenthood while grieving, and anxiety during pregnancy when you have experienced loss.


Jade has kindly given us some resources to share that helped her after Sonny's death.

We would like to thank Jade for being so vulnerable while sharing her story. It is people like Jade that help support others through such tragic circumstances.
